The company, known for pushing the boundaries of dance, returns to the ICA this fall to launch its 25th anniversary celebration. "Another Evening: Serenade/The Proposition" draws on the legacy of Abraham Lincoln, using his documented words, his contemporaries’ writings and speeches, and other texts to set up the push and pull of historical perspective. Our connection to history—or lack thereof—is evoked through video by Janet Wong, an original score blending classical and folk music in a contemporary pastiche by electric cellist Chris Lancaster, Juilliard’s Jerome Begin on piano, and text sung by soprano Lisa Komara. "Serenade/The Proposition" transports the viewer through time with its iconic set design by Bjorn Amelan, Jones’ cast of fierce dancers, actor Andrea Smith, and, completing the longtime collaborative team, lighting design by Robert Wierzel, costumes by Liz Prince, and sound design by Sam Crawford.
